My contract is up for renewal tommorow, im looking at getting a htc phone as i used to own and orbit a while ago and enjoyed modding.So out of the ignito or serra which would you choose? I wouldnt mind tyring out android aswell if that is possible on these phones.Thanks
anybody care to help?
No experience of either but i think i'd take the Serra. Don't want the slide out keyboard and it is slightly thicker but overall it looks like the better of the two.

guys!
Im planning to buy an xda phone the problem is im confuse which one I will hoose betwwen xda IIs or xda II mini, help... i want the one that will satisfy me most between this two
are those 2 models even made anymore ?
they are pretty old
your choice should be between hermes, universal and Trinity
It would also help if you told us what you are looking for in a phone.
I for one would never get a Universal, simply because of its size.
Got a brief glimpse of a Hermes in person, and liked it mostly (still seemed a bit sluggish despite the improved processor).
But then again, I am happy with my Jamin.
Hi Guys
Im looking at getting rid of my N95 so ive been looking at the HTC or XDA from what ive been reading they are the same phone. For buying one the XDA is cheepest.
My question is once its unlocked can i flash the XDA with the Cruise rom?
Ive see cooked roms for the cruise will they also work this the Orbit 2?
Thanks
Kev
Yes, they are the same hardware. They will have slightly different 'vanilla' ROM's though. As far as I'm aware you will be able to flash a Cruise rom onto an Orbit2
I have choosen the O2 Version. In Germany you got TomTom with German Maps. Also ther is more content like Car Adapter.
An the design is a little bitt better
got to disagree about the design, buttons seem a bit cheap on the xda imho and are slightly concaved unnecessarily ... just my 2p worth
Was planning on getting a O2 Xda ignito or HTC Diamond as I believe they are also known as but today came across the O2 Xda Serra which looks the same but just has the qwerty pull out keyboard.
Is the keyboard the only difference or are there other not so obvious differences?
Will the same software/apps etc work on either phone too?
Thanks for any info
Hi,
i'm tofunmi.the difference between 02xda serra and Ignito are :1, the keyboard,2.the external memory stick.
I'm looking forward to getting the 02Xda serra too.
Do you know of a good bargain?
I currently have the Orbit2 which is great for buisness use,games and web.Im quite happy sticking with htc though I think I would prefer a slide out keypad next time.Soooo is it worth waiting for any new phones on the horizon ?otherwise im going to see what is on the market now.cheers.
If you dont like flashing ur phone then dont take the kaiser HTC Tytn II because its a bit slow with the original rom
I say wait for the the Touch Pro 2 to arrive in the uk then you will have the slide out keyboard and a much much sharper screen, which is always a bonus.
Thats what im doing im just glad that i still have a few months on my contract!
Had the same problem before. I Upgraded my Orbit 2 to Sonyericsson Xperia X1i.
Got that for free on o2 business tarrif but i had to add data bolt on for extra 5 pounds a month. Total 27 pounds a month. The phone is fantastic. Made by HTC but nicely finished by Sonyericsson Otherwise wait for Touch Pro 2 but it may not be available from O2 directly...
Wait for Touch Pro 2 or Xperia 2, if you need keyboard and have time to wait.
100% wait for the touch pro 2, that is one beautiful phone, just put off upgrading for now until it is released on o2. The Kaiser (Stellar if your on o2) by the way is actually a downgrade to the Orbit 2 so don't go for that.
I know, this is a strange request, but I am one of the few that actually loves Windows Mobile 6.5 and I have all my apps that I like, etc. Does anyone know if there is a Windows Mobile ROM that will work on the HTC Inspire? I know the hardware is very similar to the HD2. My phone plan is up for renewal and rather than drop $500 plus on an HD2, I would rather use the subsidy for a renewed contract and get the HTC Inspire for $70 right now. Anyone ever tried this?
I'm sure its possible. I just doubt anyone would ever want to port Windows 6.5

How about windows 3.1 on the phone?

accualy works great if you want to trick someone. open it up in a computer browser and hit the fullscreen button!
I'm wondering if Windows Phone 7 will be ported. It may be fun to play with.
Used HD2 can be had for ~$200, no need to spend five bills.
I have been looking, but unfortunately I need the T9193 for AT&T 3g - that drives the price up considerably. Cheapest I can find is $550 new and every now and again I can find one on ebay between $450 and $500. The inspire is the only other product line that ATT carries with the 4.3 inch screen.
So I guess my question now becomes, will I like android as much as everything I have gotten used to in my Very highly customized WM 6.5 roms I have been using on my phones for the last few years? I know Inspire is too new for any customizations yet, but it will be forth coming. My old Fuze is on its last leg and I need to pull the trigger soon.
After using this phone for a bit I seriously doubt you will want to go back to Windows mobile.

Thanks all, I think I have made up my mind. I am going with the Inspire.
